 got it off of Globe and Mail, apparently its a wild 'immature' hawk someone took a picture of in a Toronto neighbourhood. Too young to be a baby too old to be a grown up. So its the confused teenager.

Lots around here too Michel.  We also have Osprey.  They are mighty impressive to watch.  We watched one for about 2 hours last summer....circling circling circling.....just waiting for the coy to come to the surface of the pond.  Then he'd rest for 10 minutes in a nearby tree, then circle some more.  He was pretty patient.....and not willing to give up.  We left for awhile, poured ourselves a cocktail....then came back out to sit and watch some more.....and he was still at it.

all i've seen that's bird related are seaguls.

They are amazing birds.  There's a guy here who has a falcon.  They hire him at the golf courses to chase the geese away.   A pretty small bird to have that much influence.  They too are fantastic to watch.

I think this one was a peregrine falcon. (sp?)  You should see the geese scatter when he flies over.  He travels around on his owners' shoulder like a parrot.  He'll sit behaving very well while he eats his lunch....lol.

  Around here, you can't build a house if it is in the vicinity of an eagles nest. (during mating/nesting season)  Everything has to go on hold....and there's some pretty stiff penalties for ignoring it.  Most builders here wouldn't do the job....it could cost them too much.....it doesn't matter how much money the owner of the property has.

Not sure Michel.  I know there are lots of them up the passage here, but I can't be very specific what times of the year.  Union Bay is FULL of them around February.....or whenever herring season is.  They lounge around on the log booms there....tons of them.  They are so loud, that they often sound like they are right in our yard....and we're a few blocks off the water.
